Devante Parker

ESPN's Adam Schefter is reporting Miami Dolphins offensive coordinator Clyde Christensen is expecting wide receiver DeVante Parker to have a "big" year in 2017.

Fantasy Impact

Parker, the 14th overall pick by the Dolphins in the 2015 draft, has never quite lived up to his predraft hype. While battling and playing through injuries, he's only caught 82 targets for 1,238 yards and seven touchdowns in 30 career games. With Jarvis Landry, Kenny Stills and Julius Thomas expected to draw the top opposing defenders, Parker could finally have his breakout season in 2017 if his health remains intact. View Parker as a boom or bust WR3 with big-play upside for the upcoming fantasy football campaign.

DeVante Parker caught five of seven targets for 45 yards on Sunday against the Patriots.

Fantasy Impact

Parker was relatively quiet down the stretch, totaling 45 yards or less in four of his last five games. Still, he showed his potential for greatness, and will need to have a big effort for the Dolphins to pull off the upset against the Steelers next weekend. For 2017, Parker will likely be a popular sleeper and breakout candidate.

DeVante Parker caught four of seven targets for 85 yards and a touchdown on Saturday against the Bills.

Fantasy Impact

Parker's touchdown was spectacular, as he broke tackles and sped past defenders on his way to the end zone. Parker has been tough to predict, but he's worth a dart throw against the Patriots at home next weekend.

DeVante Parker caught one of three targets for 17 yards on Saturday against the Jets.

Fantasy Impact

This is now back-to-back weeks that Parker has been held under 20 yards receiving. Parker's limited production is especially concerning with the other wideouts in Miami putting up stellar numbers. Parker can't be relied on for fantasy purposes in Week 16 against Buffalo.

DeVante Parker caught two of three targets for 14 yards against the Cardinals on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact

Parker took a back seat to both Jarvis Landry and Kenny Stills on Sunday, and had his fewest targets and second-lowest yardage total of the season. With Matt Moore as quarterback for the rest of the season, Parker's prospects take a dip, but he'll still be in the WR3 discussion next week against the Jets.
